They say they will vote for Independents, or not vote. What they get is a Democrat who actively tries to remove their gun rights! The last time these "smart" people voted that way "to send a message" we got Sherrod Brown.
I didn't vote for the RINO McCain. I didn't vote for the RINO Romney. I will not vote for the RINO Trump unless he quickly gets his act together. I would MUCH rather have Dems that are pushing their socialist agenda than a RINO that betrays us. At least with the Dems, the enemy is in plain sight.

When the Republicans put forth the RINO McCain, the base stayed home. When the Republicans put forth the RINO Romney, the base stayed home. Trump has betrayed the base and unless RAPIDLY fixed, the base will stay home in 2018 and 2020. The Republicans have the House, the Senate, and the Presidency and have betrayed us! It's that simple. They deserve to be severely punished at the ballot box.

So is the wall permanently scrapped??

Paul Ryan was on FOX & Friends two days ago saying it was funded but explaining it couldn't all be funded at once and a huge part was.

If it is scrapped, he flat out lied.

It's not permanently scrapped, but the funding isn't for the wall Trump wants, but for supplemental fencing along the western side of the Arizona/Mexico border. The Dems wouldn't give on that and will only consider giving on it if DACA is included, but they don't want to go the rest of the way that Trump is demanding which is to stop chain immigration and do away with the immigration lottery. Trump called them out on that by offering 1.3 million people with a possible path to citizenship and, had the media even been halfway fair, the Dems would be paying for not taking that deal. As it is, the media keeps saying it's the Republicans.

Gotcha, thanks I feel some better. I usually follow pretty close but I've had a lot going on had even seen conflicting reports.

It's hard to get a straight story any more.
